Engineering Design Capabilities

Our engineering team is equipped with the latest Solidworks Professional 3D modelling package capable of tackling any 3D CAD requirements. We can efficiently produce precise engineering models consisting of OEM equipment, skid bases, frames & roofs, interconnecting pipework & valving, electrical cabinets, and overall site layouts.  P&ID and electrical diagrams are completed with AutoCAD.

Detailed drawings can be delivered per client requirements including line types, fonts and even project specific title blocks. All drawings are thoroughly and independently checked in accordance with our QMS ensuring quality and accuracy to keep all projects error free and on schedule.

• Engineering drawings for general arrangement, P&ID and electrical schematics

• Inspection & Test Plans (ITPs)

• Projects Schedules and fabrication timelines

• Design registrations for pressure vessels

• Qualified weld procedures documentation (WPQ, PQR, WQR

• Material tractability to EN10204 3.1
